By now you should know that all of us Tipsy gals are Converse fans…including Der who has been converted.  I heard they had a couple of new lines coming out, one being the famous Marimekko designs and I had to check them out.  My opinion, SUPER CUTE!  In addition to Marimekko, there are Converse (PRODUCT) RED and Dr. Seuss (which honestly I thought were only in the kid sizes, but oh I was wrong!)

I recently purchased my very first pair of converse and I am now wondering why in the hell I waited so damned long to get on the most comfortable train ever. Here is what I am thinking now: Holidays are coming and these are highly festive with all their sparkle-ness. I would keep it simple with a solid tee and throw on these babies. Man, Must. Have.Stat.

Converse All Star Chuck Taylor Party Sparkle

I have never been a sneaker wearer in my pre-mom life. I love flats, sandals, boots, and flip flops for comfort, but you pretty much would never catch me in an athletic inspired shoe unless I was headed to work out. I’m finding that to be a thing of the past now that going out and about requires lugging a carseat, diaper bag and a trillion other objects along with me. Daily trips out of the house have become somewhat of a workout in themselves. So, here I am seeking out cute sneakers to add to my rotation. Y’all have any suggestions??

My son has been living in crocs this summer and I figured we needed to get him some tennis shoes for fall/winter.  So I went on the hunt and OMG there are so many cute ones.  I had trouble deciding between cute and colorful and cute and neutral.  The Dr. Seuss ones are ADORABLE!  I really wanted to go with something that was easy to put on and take off.  I ultimately ended up with #3 and I could not love them more.  They are so easy to put on and they are neutral with a bit color with the orange stitching.  LOVE THEM!

Hollla!   First post for me!

First things first–I am not  necessarily a “girly girl” . Some even have called me “sporty”.  One brand I am continually absorbed in is Converse.  Maybe because they have been around since the early 1900’s or maybe just because they ROCK, who knows–but everyone seems to have a connection to Converse, aka Chuck Taylor‘s .

At some point in time people actually played basketball in these  and now in the pop-culture circuit Converse have always kept themselves current–with nothing more than their simplicity.

My latest affair is Converse’s  ability to make your own pair of Converse, any style.  High-top, Low-top, Drop-top.–Converse is giving you full reign.

My pink and purple Converse with grey laces and my name painted on the rear are ordered. I will post an update of how AWESOME  (with pics) they look on these size 5 feet!
